Rolling Stone Australia still has my personal ranking as best traditional media take on Cruel Summer. "You could write a whole dissertation on the erotics of windows in Taylor’s songs — no poet since Keats has been so obsessed with the kind of desire that doesn’t dare use the door."

since our call, i've been thinking a lot about our potential goals for this project particularly around how we might make it easier to see the parallax and how we can distill what we know to make it easier for newbies to jump in

hey @babywereperfect.bsky.social my dms won't load rn so i don't have access to our zoom link to chat projects soon — will you send it to me on tt? my handle is the same. i will also try again in like 20 mins maybe the bluesky problem will have resolved 🙏

I think more women should be gay and that fascism needs to fucking die

so why did ET post this 11 hours ago???

Modern queercoding in media.. bisexual lighting, getting wet, tagging yourself on someone else doing something suggestive. Then THEY share that, cosigning in it. It's like Taylor tagging herself on boobs and butts lmao

It is NOT possible for me to listen to Golden from KPop Demon Hunters without crying. Not. Possible. How do I fix this?

i worst part about a late autism diagnosis is how your entire life suddenly comes into focus and you realize how many people hate you

using easter as an excuse to ask: is she (figuratively) dead yet?

oh yeah and here is the initial post i forgot to sent this earlier

never have i ever thought about this. it is not at all surprising.

Did we talk about the fact that Olivia Rodrigo‘s album, comes out a day before the supposed Taylor Swift wedding date? With the title, you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love? A lot was going on yesterday so if that has happened, please excuse me.

Omg I just realised that Harry announced Sign of the Times on 3/31... released on 4/7 I'd cry my eyes violet Elizabeth Taylor Just stop you're crying it's a sign of the times Welcome to the FINAL SHOW!! hope you're wearing your best clothes

HAPPY NATIONAL PRETZEL DAY MONTH TO ALL 🥨🥨🥨 IYKYK 🥨🥨🥨 EVERYONE RAISE YOUR PRETZELS OF LESBIANISM IN CHEERS! 🥨🥨🥨

wdym *of course* there are 13 films featured in elizabeth taylor

How would you categorize our sources? Would you mirror academia? (Primary, secondary, etc.) Or would you try another way? (Lyrics > Taylor & team > Friends & fam > Public)

attn gaylor archive crew: um, i went down a claude code* rabbit hole and i have a working log in & post app right now. it's super simple. *i have to learn this shit to gain employment. i may as well learn making something people may actually use.

This claim came from an Australian historian's website, which is only available from the internet archive now. He uses a direct quote that I cannot find a source for from the autobiography it supposedly comes from. It is true that Hedda Hopper warned Elizabeth Taylor that Wilding was queer.

Interesting: The archival footage from 1:26 to 1:29 is from her very public wedding to Michael Wilding, who is rumored to have been bi and closeted. They paid off a reporter about it. They were married in London. (I am not cross checking with what other folks are posting rn)

YESSSSSS!!

questions i'm about to explore in the mv today: - how many clips? - how long is each clip? - in which order do the clips appear? - are they actually all film or paparazzi clips? (elizabeth at work)

yes, exactly! it's intentional.

🚨attention fan edit icons 🚨 i think we need a taylor swift version of the elizabeth taylor video 100% performance clips, 100% pap coverage clips, 100% showing off engagement ring we* need to make the mirror. your audience? swifties who still don't get it.

okie i just watched the video once for the first time. first thoughts: 1. it's a fan edit (!!) 2. the clips seem like they're either from a film or her in front of cameras—all where Elizabeth is performing, 3. what does the other side see? i giggled when they zoomed in on her diamond ring

linkedin is wild bc you can be scrolling along looking for jobs and come across a smiling selfie of someone who's job search was interrupted by joining the reserves for the blue and white state (blocked em all)

my former employer literally traumatized me and i can't sue them because i signed away my rights to like a fucking dumbass if they pay you to leave, do. not. take it. hold out. stay and make them suffer. and do it with vengeance. /me screams into the void

i'm not immune to police dog propaganda help!

No better way to start a Sunday event to wake up and see Harry Styles came out for the 110th time

We can plant a memory garden Say a solemn prayer place a poppy in my hair There's no morning glory it was war it wasn't fair & we will never go back To that bloodshed crimson clover Uh-huh the worst was over […] Uh-huh we're burned for better […] Cause we survived the Great War

amazing how Harry styles can say “I’m not queerbaiting” and kiss a man on tv but since he didn’t say the words “I am gay” people still refuse to believe him

I’ve seen people talking about Renee Rapp coming out as lesbian on SNL but Kristen Stewart’s famously did as well:

midnight has arrived

update: just talked to him the official story is he left the army last year and got an embassy job abroad.

I think my neighbor's being deployed. We've seen him in uniform, and he's just told the group chat he's leaving the building soon and is selling all his stuff and car. (I'm in Australia.) 💔

it's tough to spend time here lately bc outside news is so stressful. i'll catch up to my replies soon. 💜

i bet blondie can relate

media is a battlefield

I cannot believe taylor swift released an album called midnights telling us to "meet her at midnight", then releases ttpd and told us "im fucking insane", and then just in time for ts12 she said "nvm im superrrrrrr happy" we have literally never left the midnights era and im now the one going insane

i wanna know if folks who spot celebs recognize their face but assume it's bc they know them personally? like they don't remember that the celeb is a celeb? does that make sense? that must be funny

TW: suicide (prevention) someone close to me has mentioned their SI twice to me recently. i want to learn more about how i can support them. what are the names of strategies we can use to prevent harm? i'll self-educate, but i need to know strategies with good reputations, cosigned by pros

it did in my house! 😉

she’s so real

yall i am SO excited for megan thee stallion's broadway debut!!!!!!!

media is a digital battleground

i can't wait to see what connor storrie does with his career

This is crazy omggggg
